Copenhagen at Christmas

It’s not much of a secret, Emily and I LOVE Christmas! Since having Matilda it’s become even more fun, especially with her being 3 she is at that age where she is truly loving the magic of it all. For the run up to Christmas we fancied going somewhere we hadn’t been before. So we – myself, Emily and Matilda – along with 2 other friends, Emma & Nathan, headed for Copenhagen in Denmark for 3 days.

Why Helsinki?

Christmas Fever is off the scale in the Finnish Capital! Lots to do and explore. Best Christmas Markets we’ve been to with so much variety. Handmade gifts, clothing, decorations, outstanding food, a vintage Dutch Carousel for kids of all ages, Glögi by the bucket load and toasted almonds! LOADS of history if you’re into that. Cheap flights if you get them at the right time. We flew with Finnair from Heathrow which is a bit of an effort for us in Somerset but it’s Christmas; if you put the effort in, you get it back 10 fold!

Katie & Ian are getting married at the beautiful Quantock Lakes this month so what better place to do their Engagement Shoot than in the stunning hills above their wedding venue? They’re such a lovely couple. Really down to earth and super chilled! Come rain or shine their wedding is going to be full of love and emotion!Continue reading »

In October 2016 we had a rare long weekend for family time and headed up to The Lake District. We’ve been wanting to visit this area of the country for a few years and we will 100% be going back for longer as soon as we can. Matilda absolutely LOVED all the walking and scrambling up the rocks. You can see some more of the trip photos on the Facebook page here. The Lake District is outrageously beautiful. If you’ve never been, and like the look of it, just book a Cottage like we did through Skye Cottages http://www.sykescottages.co.uk/.

The cottage was perfect and, even though it was actually situated just outside of Cumbria, in the Yorkshire Dales (also beautiful) it was an easy distance each day to drive and as a travel tip, was a LOT cheaper than staying in the actual Lake District.

We arrived at Alton Towers, got our tickets and queued up with the rest of the early birds to wait for the park to open. Even though the weather was pretty cold, we were all excited! Not only do I get to take photos and document Jenny & Jamie’s Theme Park day but I LOVE roller coasters and I hadn’t been to one for a good few years – Emily isn’t a fan of them so I just hadn’t been to one for ages! For me, roller coasters are awesome. The more insane the better! The ones that most people look at and think “Ha! No Chance!” are the ones I’m first in the queue for. On top of the roller coasters was the Ultimate Firework Spectacular that evening which was set to be the biggest display the Resort had ever done!

I’m writing this blog post from a BMW M3 cruising up the M5 at daft o’clock in the morning.

My companions for the day are a great couple, Jamie & Jenny who I’ve known for ages and who are getting married at the awesome Deer Park, near Honiton in June next year and Aaron driving his tidy M3, not forgetting the yeti giving directions ??? (don’t ask!). Continue reading »

Isle of Mull, Scotland – destination wedding

Today Emily and I are flying up to Scotland – Easyjet Bristol to Glasgow and then driving up to Oban to catch the ferry to the stunning Isle of Mull for Lyndsey & Finlay’s wedding tomorrow on Calgary beach on the north-west of the island. In the past I’ve been asked what kit we take to destination weddings so I though I’d post what we’re taking. Continue reading »
